USING THIS STACK:
The interface of this stack consists of two sections: the Main Window (in which the maps and all of this info appear) and the Control Bar
(below).
You are currently viewing the Help card (clicking the Question Mark icon got you here).
This stack presents five views of the Washington Metropolitan area (Central, North, South, East and West). The directional arrow cluster in the lower right corner of the Main Window controls which view is displayed. Arrow keys on the keyboard are equivelent to clicking the arrow buttons.
Each Metro station is represented by a small circle. Transfer stations are where two or more rail lines join or cross. These are represented by circles with a dot in the middle.
See "All About Metro" for more information on transfer stations.
Clicking the Magnifying Glass icon will zoom you in on downtown Washington. The arrow cluster will then change to a single Return icon. Click this to exit the close-up view of downtown.
To calculate info on a Metro ride between any two stations, click the Trip icon. You will be instructed to click on the station of origin, then the station of destination. Between performing these two clicks you may change views or zoom in on downtown (as many times as you like). When you click on your destination station you'll be shown the fare and the time it will take for the ride.
NOTE: Trip times are approximate, and may be longer when the system is in peak use (i.e. morning and afternoon rush hour).
Three fare rates will be shown: the Rush Hour fare (the highest), Non-Rush, and the Senior Citizens/Disabled rate.
For location and other info on a particular station, click on the Station Info icon, then on any station point.
Needless to say, click the Home icon to go home.
Questions/Comments are welcome.

ALL ABOUT METRORAIL:
One of the most highly rated public transpor- tation systems in the country, the Washington MetroRail system ("Metro" for short) opened in the early 70's and currently consists of almost 70 miles of track, linking the District of Columbia with most major suburbs. Most of the system runs underground in the District and above ground in the outlying areas.
The Washington Convention Center (location of MacWorld Expo) is two blocks north of the Metro Center station.
MetroRail currently consists of the Red, Blue, Orange and Yellow lines. A fifth line, the Green line, is slated for completion in 1991 and will run from southern Prince George's County, MD, through the eastern half of the District up to northern Prince George's County.
MetroRail operates from 5:30 a.m. until 12:00 midnite weekdays. On Saturdays Metro begins operation at 8:00 a.m., and at 10:00 a.m. on Sundays. "Rush Hour" rates are in effect from 6:00 a.m. to 9:30 a.m. and 3:00 p.m. to 6:30
p.m. weekdays (except holidays). In general, the longer your rail trip is, the greater the difference in fare is between rush hour and non-rush hour rates. For very short trips within the District there is usually no change in rate.
To ride Metro you must buy a farecard from a Farecard machine (located at every station). These machines accept dollar bills, fives, and any change except pennies. There are machines at some of the newer stations which also accept tens and twenties. $30 is the maximum value allowed for a farecard. Large value farecards may be re-used until their value is below $0.70, at which time you can "trade it in" at a machine for value towards a new card.
The value of your farecard is recorded on a magnetic strip and also printed on the card. When you complete your Metro ride, the exit gate will decrease this value by whatever the fare of your ride was. If your card's value is equal to your fare, the turnstile will keep the card.
Transfer Stations (indicated by the circles with the dot in the middle) are where two or more lines come together from different directions. When two or more Metro lines share a single station, the rider may change trains without needing to pass through another turnstyle.
If your card's value is less than your fare, you'll be instructed to go to a nearby AddFare machine and increase the value of your card (these are different from the main Farecard machines).
Senior citizens and disabled persons can obtain special farecards from the Metro attendant on duty at any station.
Smoking, eating & drinking are not allowed when you are "within" the Metro system, i.e. from when you pass through an Entrance gate until you pass through an Exit gate.
